10,000 Reasons

Bless the Lord, Oh my soul

Oh my soul, worship his holy name

Sing like never before, Oh my soul

I’ll worship your holy name

The sun comes up, it’s a new day dawning

It’s time to sing your song again

Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me

Let me be singing when the evening comes

You’re rich in love and You’re slow to anger

Your name is great and Your heart is kind

For all Your goodness, I will keep on singing

Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find

And on that day when my strength is failing

The end draws near and my time has come

Still my soul will sing Your praise unending

Ten thousand years and then forevermore

Forevermore

My Redeemer Lives

For I know my redeemer lives

And in the end 

He will stand on the earth

For I know my redeemer lives

And in the end 

He will reign on the earth

Though my flesh it be destroyed

Yet with my eyes I will see God

For I know my redeemer lives

And I will stand with Him on that day

For I know my redeemer lives

And I will stand with Him on that day

Oh my heart it yearns within me

For the day when Jesus returns

Oh my heart it yearns within me

For the day when Jesus shall reign

Easter Story part #1

Luke 24:1-12 

“Why do you seek the living among the dead? 

He is not here, but has risen. 

Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and on the third day rise.” 

(Verses 5-7)

Meditation ~ Pastor Nelson

It Happened like He said it would.

All: Christ is risen indeed!

IN CHRIST ALONE

In Christ alone my hope is found

He is my light my strength my song

This Cornerstone, this solid ground

Firm through the fiercest drought 

and storm

What heights of love, 

what depths of peace

When fears are stilled when 

strivings cease!

My Comforter my All in All

Here in the love of Christ I stand

In Christ alone! – who took on flesh

Fullness of God in helpless babe!

This Gift of love and righteousness

Scorned by the ones He came to save

Till on that cross as Jesus died

The wrath of God was satisfied –

For every sin on Him was laid:

Here in the death of Christ I live

There in the ground His body lay

Light of the world by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious Day

Up from the grave He rose again!

And as He stands in victory

Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine –

Bought with the precious blood of Christ

No guilt in life no fear in death

This is the power of Christ in me

From life’s first cry to final breath

Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell no scheme of man

Can ever pluck me from His hand

Till he returns or calls me home

Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand!

(Please be seated)

Easter Story part #2

“But we had hoped that he was the one to redeem Israel. 

Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened.” 

(Verses 21)

Meditation ~ Pastor Nelson

God IS with us.

You Are My King

I’m forgiven because you were forsaken

I’m accepted, You were condemned

I’m alive and well

Your spirit is within me

Because you died and rose again

You are my king

You are my king

Jesus, You are my king

Jesus, You are my king

Amazing love, how can it be?

That you, my king. would die for me

Amazing love, I know it’s true

Its my joy to honor you

Amazing love how can it be?

That my king would die for me

Amazing love I know it’s true

Its my joy to honor you

In all I do

I honor you

Luke 24:36-49

“As they were talking about these things, 

Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, ‘Peace to you!’”

…and that repentance for the forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem.” (Verse 36 & 47)

Meditation ~ Pastor Nelson

Peace with God, others… and yourself.

Because He Lives

(Please stand)

God sent his son 

They called him Jesus 

He came to love, 

heal and forgive 

He bled and died 

To buy my pardon 

An empty grave is there 

to prove my Savior lives

Chorus:

Because he lives 

I can face tomorrow 

Because he lives 

All fear is gone 

Because I know he holds the future 

My life is worth the living 

just because he lives

How sweet to hold 

A new born baby 

And feel the pride 

And joy he gives 

But better still 

The calm assurance 

That child can face uncertain 

days because he lives

And then one day 

I’ll cross the river 

I’ll fight life’s final war with pain 

And then as death 

Gives way to victory 

I’ll see the lights of glory 

and I’ll know he lives

Benediction ~ The Greatest Blessing

(Please read aloud together)

And he led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up his hands he blessed them. 

While he blessed them, he parted from them and was carried up into heaven. 

And they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy, 

and were continually in the temple blessing God.

Luke 24:50-53
